#MangroveNote on biodiversity

#MangroveNote on biodiversity | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

As the world deals with the most pressing threats to biodiversity, mangroves are often part of the solution along tropical coasts. The unique role of the mangrove forest as the interface between coastal and terrestrial ecosystems enables it to provide a wide array of habitats for many different species.
The UN Biodiversity Conference meets in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt over the next few weeks, and it comes immediately following the release of two important pieces of scientific analysis—the window is closing to limit global warming and we’ve lost 60% of the world’s wildlife since 1970.
